you have questions, I have answers.

  • You contact me with your design, including approximate size, placement, and some reference photos.
    We have a consult via phone, email, or in person (depending on the tattoo concept) to get on the same page and turn your idea into a reality.
    We book an appointment date.
    You provide a deposit.
    I draw up a design and send it to you approximately 2-3 days before your appointment.

    Check out the pre-tattoo information sheet to get all the details on what to do and what not to do! After your tattoo is complete, make sure to follow the aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible result.

  • I charge $165/hour +GST. A $100 deposit is required upon booking, which will go toward the final cost of your tattoo. There is a minimum charge of $100 for designs that take 30 minutes or less.

  • Sure does! Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, and various parts of the body will hurt more/less than others, depending on the person. There’s not much we can do about that, but it’s worth it!

  • We go above and beyond to follow all safety protocols. The shop is inspected regularly, and proper safety equipment is used for every client. All materials used are single use disposables and refreshed for each client. We maintain very strict sanitization practices, and the entire shop gets professionally cleaned on a regular basis!

  • Yes! I took up the cruelty free stance long ago and transitioned that into my tattoos. All product purchased are vegan and cruelty free, to the best of my research and knowledge.

    There is, however, one exception to this - the medical grade cleaner that MUST be used does not have a cruelty free alternative unfortunately - but I’ll continue to keep on top of it if another option ever becomes available!

  • Tipping is always appreciated but not required. We understand that tattoos are expensive, so any amount you feel inclined to tip is always greatly appreciated!

  • Sorry, not this time! To keep you and baby safe, its a shop policy that we will not tattoo if you’re pregnant.

  • No. Adults 18+ only.

  • If you cancel your appointment without rescheduling, your deposit will be forfeited. A maximum of 1 reschedules will be accepted. Afterward your appointment will be cancelled and your deposit forfeited. To reschedule again, you will be required to provide a new deposit.

    Why? When you book an appointment, I reserve that time just for you. If you reschedule or cancel, I may not be able to fill that space, and I will lose that income!
